The correct answer is B

The genetic codes language in all living organisms is the same. This is to say that the molecules of life namely DNA and RNA share the same make up in all living things .

There are five types of nucleotides in nature which are the building blocks of RNA and DNA and these are the same in all living organisms . These nucleotides are Adenine, Thymine, Guanine, Cytosine and Uracil.

According to base pairing rules, in all DNA molecules Adenine will always pair with Thymine while Guanine will always pair with Cytosine.

This  rule is the same with RNA except that here Thymine is replaced with Uracil.  Otherwise the base pairing rule applies in all living organisms, that is to say it is universal.

What is the sequence of DNA strand that was used for RNA synthesis
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

El proceso de replicación, autorreplicación, duplicación o autoduplicación de ADN es el mecanismo que permite al ADN duplicarse (es decir, sintetizar una copia idéntica). De esta manera, de una molécula de ADN única, se obtienen dos o más "réplicas" de la primera y la última. Esta duplicación del material genético se produce de acuerdo con un mecanismo semiconservador, lo que indica que los dos polímeros complementarios del ADN original, al separarse, sirven de molde cada una para la síntesis de una nueva cadena complementaria de la cadena molde, de forma que cada nueva doble hélice contiene una de las cadenas del ADN original. Gracias a la complementación entre las bases que forman la secuencia de cada una de las cadenas, el ADN tiene la importante propiedad depducirse i

A pea plant with purple flowers (and unknown genotype) is crossed with a pea plant with white flowers. one-half of the offspring
Archy [21]
The genotypes of the parents are Aa (heterozygous) and aa (recessive homozygous).  
 For example:  
 If the purple flower is dominant phenotype, then A is a dominant allele for it and Aa is a genotype which will give the purple colour.
In this case, white flower is recessive phenotype with aa genotype.
If we cross Aa x aa
<span>The offspring is going to be Aa Aa aa aa (half purple and half white)</span>
